Angel Cabrera : TGM Analysis
It would be great if any of our many resident TGM residents could give a TGM analysis of Angel Cabrera's swing. There is a lot of compression and a lot of lag in there and it would be wonderful if we could learn a little from it. 
Isn't amazing how the well known Argentine players like Roberto DiVicenzo, Edwardo Romero, Andres Romero and Angle Cabrera all have that easy on the high powerful flowing action. All of them also seem to be a bot dodgy with the short putts.  |

Would be interesting. Cabrera really drove well & stuck them on Sunday.
The fact that he has never had a proper lesson does not mean that his swing is not based on variations of TGM components.
Although the fact that he (by his own account Sunday) prefers use of cigarettes over sports psychologists  probably never was a candidate entry in Chapter 14.

Very clearly a 'hands control' motion.

I thought that that a long flowing action like Angel's would be a Swinging Action? |

I agree with bucket. he is a hitter. tempo alone does not differ a hitter and swinger. Can be an aggressive swinger.
There is no sign of centrifugal throwout.
